The sols prepared by dialyzing solutions, in which the hydrolyzed precipitates of TEOT or directly Ti(OC3H7)4 were resolved, were the nanoparticulate sol with the average particle size less than 7 nm and the anatase crystal phase. In the pH range of 1.5 to 2.9, the particle size of the nanoparticulate TiO2 sols (0.09 mol/ι) increased gradually upto 15 nm~26nm with the increase of pH in the initial aging state but the sols were transparent all the time, and stable without growin any more after 30 days. When the slipcasted porous alumina tubes were coated by the sol-gel dipping method, the minimum particle size and the aging time for forming the coated gel layer at the given pH were optimized. For obtaining the very thin crack-free and reproducible membrane coating, the use of a nanoparticulate TiO2 sol (0.09 mol/ι) aged for about 30 dyas at pH=2.0 was found to be the best.

The effect of rice starch at different concentrations (0, 4, 6, and 8%) on dynamic rheological properties of surimi sols was investigated by small-deformation oscillatory measurements at $10^{\circ}C$ and during heating from 10 to $95^{\circ}C$. Dynamic frequency sweeps at $10^{\circ}C$ showed that the magnitudes of storage modulus (G') decreased with increasing starch concentration while those of tan $\delta$ increased. G' values of surimi-rice starch sols during heating decreased with increasing starch concentration, indicating that the pattern of G' changes during heating was influenced by the concentration of the added rice starch. In general, the characteristic G' thermograms of all samples showed a similar sol-gel transition pattern.

SiC whisker-reinforced LAS matrix composites were developed by a mixed colloidal processing route. An optimization of processing conditions was made using the zeta potential data of silica, boehmite, and SiC whisker dispersions. Similarly, the SiC whisker-reinforced composites were also fabricated by the conventional sol-gel process using the hydrolysis-condensation reaction of relevant metal alkoxides. The composites fabricated by the mixed colloidal processing route were characterized by a uniform spatial distribution of SiC whisker throughout the matrix. The fracture toughness increased from 1.3 MPa.m1/2 for the LAS specimen to 5.0 Mpa.m1/2 for the hot-pressed composite (95$0^{\circ}C$ and 20 MPa for 20 min) containing 20 wt% SiC whisker. The increase in fracture toughness appears to result mainly from the crack deflection and the crack bridging by whiskers with some additional toughenings from the whisker pullout and the matrix prestressing mechanisms.

Thin films of Ag-SiO2-TiO2 composite oxides with SiO2/TiO2 of 20/80 molar compositions were prepared by the sol-gel method, using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and titanium isopropoxide (TIP) as precursors. Ag-SiO2-TiO2 films coated on commercial glass substrates have successfully been synthesized using sol-gel method. The Ag-SiO2-TiO2 film with 0.5% Ag-added concentration and 20 mol% SiO2-mixture gives optimal results on crystalline structure, optical property, surface area, and photochromic property. Absorption near the wavelength of the incident light decreased gradually. The reversibility of the two-photon writing process in Ag-SiO2-TiO2 film is clearly seen.

The synthesis of stearic acid composite phase change material (PCM) was investigated and the samples produced were characterized for use in latent heat storage, using a simple chemical sol-gel process. The PCM was encapsulated to tetraethyl orthosilicate by various preparation ratios of stearic acid (5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50%). Fourier transformation infrared spectroscope (FT-IR) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD) were performed to determine the chemical structure and crystalloid phase of the microencapsulated PCM. SATEOS1 (5%) shows the best proportion for the PCM. With the presence of stearic acid as core materials and SiO2 as the supporting materials, it does not show any chemical reaction between both of them. SATEOS1 shows promising potential for thermal energy storage as it shows a better encapsulation efficiency and good thermal stability.

Model equations for the gas permeation through a ceramic composite membrane were derived for examining the existence of crack, the reproducibility, and the microstructural properties of composite membranes. From the results of analyzing the nitrogen permeability data through alumina-tube supported TiO2 and SiO2 composite membranes, the extent of cracking, and the formation and structure of membrane top-layers were modelled. It was proved that the crack-free and reproducible composite membranes could be easily prepared only by the pore-filled coating within pores of the support in the sol-gel coating process.

Inorganic/organic composite was synthesized by using sol-gel process, and the bonding characteristics of composite was investigated with glass transition temperature(Tg), measured by DMTA(Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analyzer). It was found from shift of Tg to higher temperature that composite reaction was proceeded better with the amount of HCl and water. But Tg was not varied with reaction time.

In this paper, a finite element structural analysis for thin-walled open-section composite beams with elastic couplings has been performed. The analysis includes the effects of transverse shear across beam sections, torsion warping and constrained warping. Reissner's semi-complementary energy functional is used to obtain the beam st illness coefficients The bending and torsion related warpings and the shear correct ion factors are obtained as part of the analysis. The resulting theory describes the beam kinematics in terms of the axial, flap and lag bending, flap and lag shear, torsion and torsion-warping deformations. The static response has been validated against finite element predict ions, closed form solutions, and experimental data for rectangular sol id and I-beams with elastic couplings. The free vibration results are also compared with available literature.

Mesoporous zeolite - heteropolyacid-polymer hybrid membrane was prepared by sol-gel processes to make a proton conducting membrane. The crystallinity of mesoporous zeolite in composite membrane was increased with contents of heteropolyacid. Proton conductivity obtained from impedance measurements increases with contents of heteropolyacid, about 10$^{-3}$ S/cm in ca. 1.5 Wt% heteropolyacid.

In this study, we investigated the electromagnetic properties and microwave absorption characteristics of M-type hexagonal ferrites, which are known as millimeter-wave absorbing materials, according to their calcination temperature. The M-type ferrites synthesized using a molten salt-based sol-gel method exhibited a single-phase M-type crystal structure at calcination temperatures above 850℃. The synthesized particle size increased as well with the calcination temperature. Saturation magnetization increased gradually with increasing calcination temperature, but coercivity reached a maximum at 1050℃ and then rapidly decreased. After preparing a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composite containing 70 wt% of M-type ferrites, we measured the complex permittivity and permeability in the Q-band (33-50 GHz) and V-band (50-75 GHz) frequency ranges, where ferromagnetic resonance occurred. Strong magnetic loss from ferromagnetic resonance occurred in the 50 GHz band for all composite samples. Based on the measured results, we calculated the reflection loss of the TPU/M-type ferrite composite. By calculating the reflection loss of the M-type ferrite composite, the M-type ferrite calcined at 1250℃ showed excellent electromagnetic wave absorption performance of more than -20 dB at 52 GHz with a thickness of about 0.5 mm.
